Near the border of the Old World sits a small village with a overly large cemetery often covered in mist
Mistpoint (Village), Central Thylasx region, Queendom of Nodora
Purpose: About 150 or so people live in the Village, built up around a sprawling cemetery and surrounded by fields of crops. It is off-season for their well known festival of the Radiant Dawn, worship of Sollara Goddess of life.
The mayor of this town is literally the angry Goose Bimblebottom, elected by the people of the town, and the council is incapable of much (the goose is general thought to be more effective than the last mayor).
The town is dangerously close to the no-man’s land border to the old World, and this time of year, the mist coming down from the Heartstone mountains is thick and oppressive, which also happens to be the villages only real line of defense.
